Ole Pilgaard solar thermal abundant energy for hea

Slide1: Solar Thermal – abundant energy for heating and cooling Ole Pilgaard European Solar Thermal Industry Federation
Slide2: Solar energy today Solar energy can be used in different ways: Photovoltaic (direct conversion of light into electricity) Solar thermal power (steam turbines using solar energy as heat source to produce electricity) But by far the largest application of solar energy is for thermal use: heating and cooling (“Solar Thermal”)
Slide3: World wide solar energy production 2004
Slide4: Typical applications of solar thermal
Slide5: Emerging applications of solar thermal Solar industrial process heat Solar desalination
Slide6: Heating sector: the neglected giant EU-25: shares of final energy consumption (Includes 130 Mtoe of oil)
Slide7: Huge variations in the use of solar thermal
Slide8: Example: Austria vs. Europe
Slide9: Strong effects of support policies Climatic conditions are clearly not the reason for the huge variations between countries Support policies have played a major role in the growth of solar thermal Public support comes in the form of: Financial incentives Regulation R&D programmes Awareness campaigns Demonstration: Solar thermal on public buildings
Slide10: Self-perpetuating success People find it natural to use solar thermal Architects foresee solar thermal as a standard feature in buildings Every installer offers solar thermal systems Costs go further down Further public support is not necessary Experience shows that once solar thermal has reached a critical mass in one country:
Slide11: Renewable Heating Directive Since 2003, ESTIF has called for a EU Directive to promote Renewable Heating and Cooling The time is ripe: A broad coaltion supports the Directive already We believe: The Directive will be the decisive political measure towards a sustainable heating and cooling sector Thanks to Mechtild Rothe‘s initiative, the issue is currently discussed in the European Parliament
